Once more the voice hailed her: “Muvver. ‘don’t ;- you smell -snmtin' burnin’?" " Even this ‘drew no - re- sponse. “If you don’t smell nothin’,” the voice went on. “it's 'cause 1 pulled off all th* match beads an’ swallowed ‘em. an’ I'm goin’ to die. Do you hear that. muvver: I'm goin® to die.” By this time the mother ‘was thor- oughly incensed. and. hastily preparing Again burried upstairs. she ‘annvunced. “you’ll have to swail-. low. this to keep them company.” And thén she ‘poured the nauseating stuff down his throat. A little later the aggravating young- ster, sadder. wiser and much humbled. concluded to take the balance of his punishment in silence. .

The people of Min- nesota have already realized the re- sults that may be attained by co- operation for the purpose of attain- ing any given end. Accordingly I am calling the attention of the peo- ple of this state to an important question which is given us to solve if all work together. The end In view is the prevention: of fire losses so that each citizen of the state of Minnesota may be more prosperous at the close of the year than he was at the close of the previous year. Not only will proper co-operation along these lines result in the conservation of property but human life will be |conserved as well. Money and pro- perty can be replaced but human life snuffed out is an irretrivable loss. The fire waste in the United States is absolutely appaling. That it is a useless waste is shown conclusively by comparative statistics. The aver- jage per capita loss through fire to the citizens of this country is ap- proximately $2.50. In European countries the average per capita loss is 35¢c. During the past fifteen years it is estimated that two billion dol- lars and twenty thousand lives have been offered up as a sacrifice to the fire scourge. Shall we admit that Europe can teach us a primary les- son in conservation?’ Surely we shall not do so. An American hag led and blazed the trial in the most difficult lines of human endeavor, so in this question of conservation involving the prevention of loss of property and life by fire America must lead, but before assuming the position of lead- ership, America must learn. the les- son which Europe is teaching. In Minnesota a strenuous strug- gle has been waged against fire losses through the establishment of tae office of the State Fire Marshal. Be- cause of the efforts of the State For- ester and through the interest taken in this subject by the State Insurance Commissioner, Minnesota has gone far towards solving the problem. Their efforts are to be commended but much remains to be attained-and this can be accomplished only through, the thorough co-operation offthe people-of the state: | ifstance and was held in the city of St. Paul. At that congress different methods of fire prevention were dis- cussed and the influence of the gathering has oeen nation-wide. The different states have taken up the matter and everywhere a titanic struggle is being waged against the useless ‘waste of firé. Having set the pace along this line, Minnesota should not be a laggard in carrying on the war. Co-operation is the key to the situation. This co-operation can be attained only through the ac- tive influence of those agencies that can bring co-operation to you. These agencies are especially, the ‘churches, the schools, the commercial and mu- nicipal organizations and private business concerns. A large percent- age of the fire losses occur through criminal activity or carelessness. The infiuence of these agencies for harm can be reduced to a minimum by the jactive interest of our people. The police power of the state with the assitance of all good citizens will be directed against the crime of arson. The crime of carelessness is one that can be prevented only through the activity of all good citizens. Relent- less war can be waged against the careless use of matches. Inflamma- ble rubbish¥in factories and else- where must not be permitted. Hail- ways and alleys .that are noisime and dangerous should.be cleaned up. Oily waste, a dangerously inflam- mable material, must be eliminated. Lumber yards, packing houses or factories must be carefully guard- A year ago the first national >fl're‘. pEevention:congress was called.at my car Greater ‘must be exercised in the homes. Accordingly . for the purpose of celling paytlculur attention to this camp’dgn againgt the waste by fire, {I hereby proclaim Thursday, Octo- ber 9th, as 3 ) Fire Prevention Day 4 in Minnesota. I urge that it be Eu recognized in all the departments of the state, in all the public and pri- vate institutions of learning, and Ly all social, religious, educational and commercial organizations, and by in- dividuals interested in the social and economic benefit of our people. The press as the greatest agent of eco- nomic betterment in this state is es- pecially urged to take up this matter and jto impress upon our people its importance and the benefits to be at- tained. It is hoped that the chief executives of every city and village in the state will interest themselves in the movement and urge a general fire prevention and clean-up day iz their, communities 8o that the fire waste in Minnesota may be reduced to a‘minimum.

Describing the supper arrangements made - for French legislators duljlng late sfttings in the Palais Bourbon, the Paris Liberte says: “At the appointed time the marble tables in the restuurant are covered with plates of larded veal, saveloys, cold ham, salad containing' little cubes of Gruyere cheese and baskets of bread. As soon as the chamber gets wind of these preparations a.general exodus takes place, and the member addressing the house is left to address his successor, the president, the ush- ers, reporters and other melancholy officials. “It is not exactly-a stately banquet that the legislators sit down to. There are no knives. no forks and in the | place of plates just a few saucers. The members first fling - themselves upon the bread baskets and pick the nicest looking pieces; then, making veal. the saveloys or the hum.-seize a slicedn their fngers. put it on the bread.: keep it there with™the” thumb, while. they squeeze their way out of the press and devour their spoil. “Such manners take us back to far- off prehistoric days. whep our ances- tors ate on the floor of their caverns.
